Love these! My favorite pepper/chilli ever! Pickled them at home and we enjoyed them for months! Plants overwintered fantastically and now there's a large yeild on the way!

We pickled them too, with great success, but also enjoyed these pepper dews freshly sliced over lads and other dishes. They enjoyed growing in the heat of our plastic covered veggie tunnel, and rewarded us with a lot of pepper dews.

Malawi Sundew

Capsicum annuum

An old African Heirloom from Malawi. We acquired the seed as a gift from a migrant laborer called Gilbert, who brought the seed from his father's farm in Malawi. This variety was passed down in his family for many years and was a staple grown on their family farm.

The flavor is sweet and spicy. Makes the most amazing pickles, with a little extra sugar added to bring out the full piquant pepper flavor.


 Approx 25 seeds
